The MG7-A was a proton torpedo produced by Krupx Munitions and commonly used aboard T-65 X-wing starfighters during the Galactic Civil War.

The MG7-A featured sophisticated guidance systems allowing the torpedo to track and home in on targets. The MG7-A was said to have a margin of error of less than three meters under even the heaviest of jamming, though it was not unusual for high-powered starfighters to outmaneuver these warheads.

Luke Skywalker fired two MG7-A proton torpedoes into the thermal exhaust port on the Death Star during the Battle of Yavin, resulting in the destruction of the battle station.
